Now more than ever, family engagement is essential for student and school success.

Join us and guest speaker, Dr. Karen L. Mapp, EdD, Harvard Graduate School of Education as we share what we know – given the extensive research on family engagement, the powerful impact of effective family, school partnerships on students, parents, teachers and schools.

Dr. Mapp will discuss what we have learned from the Covid 19 crisis and the national racial reckoning about the critical role of home-school partnerships to support student success and school improvement.

Dr. Mapp will summarize the research and articulate the essential conditions, as identified in the 2019 Dual Capacity-Building Framework for Family-School Partnerships (Version 2), that are necessary to cultivate and sustain liberatory (free of dominance), solidarity-driven (in union and fellowship), and equity-focused (fair and just) family engagement practice.
